Contact form is broken!

Edit: The form is fixed. Sadly, I discovered many inquiries that had been shipped off to a tiny, bizarre location and were therefore not responded to. My apologies! I believe I’ve contacted everyone but if you’re still interested, please get in touch!

Ugh! I just discovered that the contact form on http://glimpsesofsoul.com is not working. It LOOKS like it’s working but I don’t ever receive the information. I’m working with tech support to figure out what the problem is.

If you sent me an inquiry and I didn’t respond, please contact me at contactform@glimpsesofsoul.com or by using the form on this blog which does work and I’ll get back to you right away!

Sara + Alan | Stillwater Photographer

My little sister, who really isn’t so little anymore, got married almost a month ago at the Stillwater Courthouse. Everyone I spoke to about it beforehand was surprised to hear that I would be photographing it, rather than standing up, but the people who really know me, know I’d MUCH rather be behind a camera than standing up in front of a crowd, wearing a dress. So it worked out perfectly.

(And their engagement photos are still among my most favorite.)

(That’s my Dad “disapproving” over there in the corner.)

Evan is One | Stillwater Children Photographer

Some familiar faces around the blog. This was my last session for Evan’s first year. Luckily, his big sister and I are scheming to go to the movies together so I’m sure I’ll see them all again sometime soon. :)

Cass Turns Two | Woodbury Family Photographer

What a difference a year makes! Cass was 6 months when I first met him and a year at our second session.

Now he’s TWO! A little man. A little more serious, a little more wary and a lot more independent! We went back to the same Woodbury park for their session this year.

Cass is also a big brother now. But Mom and Dad are waiting until the little guy gets a bit older before he gets his own photo session.

Vanessa

Yikes. I was off the blog-grid for a bit longer than I intended to be. I have lots to share!

Vanessa is the niece of someone I know through roller derby, Orange Ruffy (the Mother of the Bride at the roller derby wedding!) We’ve been talking about a session for Vanessa for quite some time now but this little girl has gone through a lot in her one year. She was born with Hydrocephalus and a hole in her heart and has undergone surgeries and feeding tubes and stints and I’m sure all manner of things that I can’t even imagine. But she’s still a happy, smiley, determined little one year old, despite it all.

She was also very intent on sucking her thumb, sometimes both at the same time. I’d pull one gently from her mouth and she’d have the other one in there in a blink until I eventually acknowledged who won.

Off the Grid

I’m heading off to a world without Internet tomorrow. My assistant will be covering for me but he’s easily distracted by anything that moves (and often by things that don’t), so I wouldn’t expect much until I return next weekend. Have a good week!

Kate & Matthew | St. Paul Kids Photographer

Another session I recently donated was to the Twin Cities East chapter of Mothers & More to offer as a door prize at their open house. The timing was perfect as the winner’s daughter just turned one so we set up the session quickly and I got to go meet them right away. Such blue, blue eyes!

Silly Together | Minnesota Family Photographer

mk — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 02:25:07 +0000

Last year, I donated a session to the Minnesota Waldorf School Frolic Fundraiser & Gala. This wonderful family were the ones who bought it. I went to their home in Mahtomedi one of those terribly muggy mornings we’ve had in the past few weeks but we had a good time anyway. An actor and a violin player, these kids have their lives better planned out in high school than I do now! I enjoyed listening to their excitement and passion for working towards their goals.

A lotta love and silliness in this family.

Brynlee | Minneapolis Newborn Photographer

I met Brynlee’s mom at an expo last year and we talked about doing photos of their new baby then…a Great Dane puppy. Because of some puppy health issues, that never quite panned out but when they contacted me this year, they had a new baby to photograph. A people baby! Isn’t she cute?

Mini-Sessions are Here!

mk — Fri, 21 May 2010 18:05:33 +0000

My schedule has exploded in the past two days and this is part of the reason. This info went out to the newsletter subscribers a couple of days ago.

Previously, mini-sessions were scheduled back-to-back on a single day in a location of my choosing. But starting now, through the end of June, you can schedule one anywhere, any time! These are perfect if you just want a taste of a full session, just had one recently but need a few more photos, want to do something special for Father’s Day or want to try something new.

The sessions last 30 minutes and are for immediate family members only (and don’t work with newborn sessions, sorry).

The spots are filling up quickly! Contact me now to grab one for your family.
